Aprocess uses 63,400 scf/h of natural gas. what is the annual cost of natural gas used in the process?

Explanation:

It is known that 1 SCF produces approximately 1000 Btu of thermal energy.

As it is not mentioned for how many hours the gas is used in this process. Therefore, we assume that the total number of hours natural gas used in this process are as follows.

        = 8760 hours

Now, we will calculate the annual cost of natural gas used in the process as follows.

              = 555384000 SCF

Hence, annual cost of natural gas used in this process = loss of thermal energy

This will be equal to,  

                           = 555,384,000,000 BTU

Thus, we can conclude that the annual cost of natural gas used in the process is 555,384,000,000 BTU.

because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, distributors add mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). they locate the types of rock that are likely to contain natural gas deposits.
